Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Every ST-Ericsson Ux500 SOC consists of both ABx500 and DBx500 physically,
|
|
this is kernel hwmon driver for ABx500.
|
|
|
|
There are some GPADCs inside ABx500 which are designed for connecting to
|
|
thermal sensors, and there is also a thermal sensor inside ABx500 too, which
|
|
raises interrupt when critical temperature reached.
|
|
|
|
This abx500 is a common layer which can monitor all of the sensors, every
|
|
specific abx500 chip has its special configurations in its own file, e.g. some
|
|
sensors can be configured invisible if they are not available on that chip, and
|
|
the corresponding gpadc_addr should be set to 0, thus this sensor won't be
|
|
polled.
